Call of Duty League caster roasts fan who said she was hired for \u201cpretty face\u201d Twitter, @allycxt, @CODLeague \/ PixabayCall of Duty League caster Alyssa \u2018Allycxt\u2019 Parker doesn\u2019t take kindly to those who minimize women in esports. After hearing that female talent only get their jobs due to \u2018prettiness,\u2019 she instantly clapped back. Former Call of Duty League host and current Halo Championship Series host Lottie Van-Praag took to Twitter on March 11 to try and explain something. In particular, she wanted people to know that \u201cbeing a female isn\u2019t a job title.\u201d Instead, Van-Praag elaborated that \u201cwe have separate jobs.. host, analyst, caster.. there isn\u2019t just the staple female on the desk and that\u2019s the role.\u201d Despite this reasonable explanation, some members of the internet weren\u2019t convinced. One decided to drop a \u201cfact,\u201d saying that \u201cwomen have jobs in esports for the pretty face to attract viewers.\u201d So, Allycxt responded. CDL caster Allycxt claps back at fan\u2019s \u201cfact\u201d about women If you\u2019re watching cod just to look at my face you are down horrific brotha https:\/\/t.co\/K6Rv8t8Lnu \u2014 Allycxt (@Allycxt) March 11, 2022 Taking the fan to task, Allycxt explained that the tweet says more about the fan than it does about women in esports. As she concisely put it, \u201cif you\u2019re watching CoD just to look at my face, you are down horrific brotha.\u201d This wasn\u2019t enough for the fan, known only as \u2018codislyf,\u2019 who proceeded to double down and reveal that they were on a burner account. Codislyf continued to say that retired pros should be on the desk, but the CDL \u201cbring a beautiful face to attract new viewers.\u201d You\u2019re the only one commenting this so I\u2019ll ask again, who is \u201cus\u201d ??? I break down analyze and play the game everyday, maybe if you cleared the misogyny out of your ears you\u2019d be able to listen. #womeningaming \ud83e\udd0d \u2014 Allycxt (@Allycxt) March 11, 2022 The back-and-forth continued, with Allycxt making it clear that codislyf\u2019s behavior equated to \u201cmisogyny.\u201d While the fan explained that they were on this fake account to avoid being canceled, others chimed in supporting the 2022 analyst. One user called her \u201cone of the better on desk talent in years.\u201d Another said \u201cshe knows CoD through and through and brings a different perspective.\u201d Last, but not least, one decided to add a little Elden Ring twist, telling codislyf that he (or she) is \u201cjust a troll who can\u2019t get no maidens.\u201d On Allycxt\u2019s end, she has since suggested that the league should host an \u201canalyst exhibition match\u201d so she can prove her in-game skills for real. For those who want to judge her desk talent, though, simply tune into the CDL\u2019s Major 2 Qualifiers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
